Thus are young ladies taught, Mama!

Let others mind their work; I’ll play,

Mama, the sweet duet,

That for my master’s voice and mine

Is from Armida set.

If Rénaud felt love’s burning flame,

I feel some shootings of the same:

Tra la la la, tra la la la,

Thus are young ladies taught, Mama!

Let others keep accounts; I’ll dance,
